Names of the Bones and a NEW machine!

Science: Names of the Bones week #1

This week we began learning the names of the bones in our bodies. We filled out worksheets and we played with our iposter.

Science: Skeletal System Week 2: Our growing bodies. 

Why do we need a skeleton? 

A skeleton is a structure of bones that keeps us from turning to a pile of organs and flesh. It also supports the human body, protects the heart and lungs, and helps you move. No wonder we need bones! Cool!

Skeletal System Week One

Science: 

October is a new month and that means a new Human Science Unit. Along with Halloween we will be learning about our Skeletal System!

Nervous System Week 5: Hearing and Sight

This week we learned about our eyes and ears and how they send signals to our brain.

This is how we hear:

This is why we shouldn't stick anything, like cotton swabs into our ears, because we might damage parts of the middle ear.

Nervous System Week 4: Touch

This week we learned about how receptors relay their signals via the spinal cord to the "touch center" of the brain.

We set up stations around our kitchen table and we got out our Sensory Science Kit! First, we covered our table with plastic to protect it, then we set timers on Alexa and rotated around until we tried them all. Our younger siblings loved playing with them too!
